 Prescott sent up 75 school chil- dren to the Exposition Friday, "School Children's Day.' Includ ing patrons there were over 100. AS usual, Prescott leads in this as everything else in S. w. Ark No other town in this entire sec ton showed up so well. Another feather in our cap.
 ON A BOoM.-Think of t, this morning by s o'clock there were 125 bales cotton in and offering for sale. From 75 to l50 is our aver age daily receipts of the staple.- Verify, the town is not dead, but on a boom. Top prices brings the cotton. and no town can beat Prescott, but she leads the rest.

 The Dispatch crew will pine away in utter 'mocuous desue- tude" as the country keeps on ad- vancing :and improving, without any "European slavery' materi- alizing. Let the balance of us keep on steadily at work, attend ing to our own business, and the country will continue safe, and they may pine away and die of modification and disappointment, without serious loss.
 Prescott is undoubtedly the bes, cotton market in Southwest Ar kansas. In proof of this, we will state SS bales of cotton were brought here early lasi week by one man. Esq. Ealy, of Pike conn iy, and he goi 800 all around for 1t. Other towns pay from a quar- ter to tlree-eighls of d cent less than our town. Live merchants and bold buyers give us prestige. Bring your cotton here, farmers, and you'll get the top price.
